Dalbello Lupo Pro HD - heat mold?

I have been happy with 26.5 Dalbello Krypton's, I have intuition power wraps in them to tighten them up a bit. I ordered some Lupo Pro's in the same size. I intend to go to a good boot shop (summit co, co) and get footbeds; would you have them heat molded, or will putting up with a. couple days of pain make them fit better in the long run? Or is heat molding a walking boot stupid for some reason? Thanks!

I usually recommend that people take their boots out for 1-2 days, see what feels good, what feels bad...and then go from there.

Cool; thanks. I tried some old custom footbeds in there that seem to fit ok; I'm torn between getting new ones or not; I don't know how they are supposed to fit in the liner; they seem a bit small... I should get to ski them Monday :). I may go get footbeds first.

I tried them on; had to put foot in liner first to get in and wore them for an hour or so; seems a little roomier in forefoot than Krypton2, but harder to get foot in the boot. I'm not sure I'll consider the fit tight enough after skiing some. I'm already thinking that long term I'll want another liner to take up some room like I did with the Krypton 2's (or maybe I'll like the extra room for walking). Thoughts? Thanks a bunch!

I use a Zipfit to tighten things up and it works awesome
